Giles ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Maybe you should call the woman in the ad who said she designed Windows 7. It must be her fault.
I don't know diddly about it. I just know I tore my hair out trying to get my sister's Vista laptop to play nicely with the other XP machines, and even my Vista PC takes networking breaks that mean I have to switch ports on the hub.
I haven't understood MS Networking since 2000, but at least I could fake it with XP.
tommyrot,
ooh. thanks for the links. I have been debating whether I will buy internet for my long flight back, but now I don't have to!
I wish I could help with the Windows 7 issue, but both my Win 7 computers are wired.
That's not what I came here to post. Rather, I was going to say I used my new GPS this morning and it's working brilliantly. I could see my speed when my speedometer went out half-way to work. It also showed me the speed limits which was kinda cool and I didn't realize it could do.
I wish I could turn the display into a big speedometer, but it's not like it's designed just for me. Still works great and the delay isn't bad at all.
I'll have to play around with it more, but I just got it last night.
Oh, mine does that too, Gud, and I love it! Does yours turn the numbers red when you break the speed limit by more than 3 mph? Now that's a handy feature for me, the person who'd do 80 everywhere if not for cruise control.
shrift, a friend of mine had the problem with the internet going wonky in Win 7. He said something about a setting that used to be default off in older versions, but is default on in Win 7? I didn't pick up a lot of the specifics, as I don't have the OS, but maybe that will help you in your search for an answer?
Can anyone tell me how secure the iPhone/edge network is? I forgot to make a transfer to my debit card. I can go to an ATM, but it's a pain
You are going to do this by phone or through the web?
Do the web and have https in the browser.
Sorry should have been clearer. I'm on the iPhone and need to make a transfer using the bank's website. I'm concerned about the security of the edge network with the iPhone

Hmm. Maybe? Thanks for the tip. I need to do some more research. And woman up and call tech support when I get back from Michigan.
